Not so sure it's a "huge" modding community. A huge mooching, what can I get for free, downloader community there exists for sure, though. But if you compare the key players in the modding scene, it usually remains pretty consistent… sometimes even diminishing as veterans move on and up-and-comers not necessarily having the experience to make anything as extensive as a full overhaul try to fill their shoes.

But kudos to SureAI. Just wish it was out already as I've been considering a Skyrim replay now that I have DLC.

Scripting is also a pain in the ass in Skyrim, compared to Morrowind/Oblivion.
